Because then you'd complain that they made the bad guy a black person.

Get over it.

Well the Adventure of Buckaroo Bonzai was better because all the bad aliens were white and all the good aliens were black. Admit it, it was glorious.

I get so sick of modern day "reverse" racism where the inclusion of a "white" person in any role portrayed is somehow perceived as indication of a racist agenda by the authors/producers.



Recently I read some ridiculous attack on the film Avatar, based upon how much it cost to make it, and this was enough evidence for said fool to declare that it was made by Zionist supremacists because nobody has spent as much money making a movie about the plight of the Palestinians.



Seriously, I reckon that a good majority of the people who go looking for racism and get up in public and declare that something is racist are far more likely to be portraying their own racist prejudices against whatever race that they're complaining about.

He has to be rich in his position. Probably white to match the voice talent and/or the character that the director had in mind.

I think it would be unusual for a black person to be the leader of a racist organization. I think being part of an ethnic group that has suffered through racism would make that person more culturally sensitive and open minded.

Unusual, but not nonexistant.  Black supremacist organizations like Nation of Islam and Black Panthers are all on the far fringe and they hold no political clout.

White racist groups like the Council Of Conservative Citizens on the other hand have members who are elected members of congress.

i mean. why not a black guy, why couldnt BW diversify. And where are all the asians in ME2 anyway.


Seriously Bioware cannot win. If they would have made the Illusive Man a cigar smoking black man in tailored suits, someone would have been complaining about how come every scumbag shady type is a black man.

Seriously at the end I thought TIM was going to start raving about how Shepard had stolen his "OVERTHRUSTA!"

Hey I got an idea. Wait for it. We already have threads hating sexual orientation, threads with off color jokes. We should have one about racism! Yeah! That's a great idea!

Well most of the humans in the game are white. Why not make him black to even the scale here? I'm serious. obama is black, TIM should be black.


Obama is black, so TIM should be black?

What on earth?

You know what? I've had it with the videogame industry being racist against Spaniards.
First it was Resident Evil 4, now this. Enough is enough!

If this racism doesn't stop we're going to America and stealing your gold!

Could Martin Sheen have done a VO for an old African American lady? Also if you want to be racial about it, many companies are led by people of different ethnicities, but corporate is still usually male/white dominated. It has nothing to do with race, its just coincidence.

I think the Illusive man is a Republican.



Seriously though, the codex I think has an entry about Earth becoming mixed racially. Yay for the future!

Ubisoft has you killing Mexicans throughout the GRAW games. Pure racism!



Red Storm has you killing Russians and cubans throughout the first Ghost Recon! KILL COMMIES



Seriously though, guess thats why Capcom tried to diversify the targets in RE5, still got **** for putting in black people although that whole tribal thing was insensitive WHY MUST I FEED TROLLS

Well.. fact is, what do you think the majority of the people who play this game look like? There's your answer.



As a black woman, I don't mind saying we're not exactly large in number here ;). Doesn't matter, though. You see the stupid BS some of these people say regarding Jacob and remember why you avoid most threads that even hint at race being discussed.



At any rate, whatever TIM is, he's really easy on the eyes and ears, even for an old guy.
